Well, it’s the middle of February already and time still seems to be going by rather quickly. It’s been cold here lately but now more snow, it actually looks like it may be a little warmer in the next few days but we’ll see. From what I understant, the summers are no picnic. Very very hot and dusty but I guess the spring and fall will be nice.<\/p>\n
I would like to thank everyone for the care packages and letters. It is always nice getting something from home. I guess it takes abouta week to get here, but it takes about 2 weeks for my mail to get back there. I remember Desert Storm when the mail took weeks to months to get to us. I guess times have changed.<\/p>\n
